It could have been a much closer match for Argentina if Manu Ginobili wasn't injured (twisting his ankle) in the 1st quarter and sat the entire game out. Argentina made some serious runs in the 2nd quarter reducing team USA's 19 pt. lead to a single digit closing in at 49-40 score to end the half. The 3rd quarter ended with USA still leading 78-64 and team USA led from there on until the final buzzer sounded.
